Datasets 16 A. Data curation. Digital scans of landscape paintings were collected from the two major online sources: Wiki Art (WA) (1) 17 and the Web Gallery of Art (WGA) (2). For our purpose, we collected 12,431 landscape paintings by 1,071 artists assigned to 18 61 nationalities from WA, and 3,610 landscape paintings by 816 artists assigned with 20 nationalities from WGA. While the 19 overall number of paintings from WGA is relatively smaller than from WA, the WGA dataset has a larger volume of paintings 20 produced before 1800 CE. Therefore, we utilize both datasets in a complementary way. 21 As same paintings can be included in both datasets, we carefully constructed a unified dataset by filtering out the duplicate 22 paintings from both datasets by using meta-information of paintings (title, painter, completion date, etc.) to construct a unified 23 set of painting images. The filtering process is as follows.

  • Judit Nagy Cultural Encounters on the Canvas
    JUDIT NAGY CULTURAL ENCOUNTERS ON THE CANVAS: EUROPEAN INFLUENCES ON CANADIAN LANDSCAPE PAINTING 1867–1890 Introduction Whereas the second half of the 19th century is known as the age of transition in Victorian England, the post-confederation decades of the same century can be termed the age of possibilities in Canadian landscape painting, both transition and possibilities referring to a stage of devel- opment which focuses on potentialities and entails cultural encounters. Fuelled both by Europe’s cultural imprint and the refreshing impressions of the new land, contemporary Canadian landscapists of backgrounds often revealing European ties tried their hands at a multiplicity and mixture of styles. No underlying homogenous Canadian movement of art supported their endeavour though certain tendencies are observable in the colourful cavalcade of works conceived during this period. After providing a general overview of the era in Canadian landscape painting, the current paper will discuss the oeuvre of two landscapists of the time, the English-trained Allan Edson, and the German immigrant painter Otto Reinhold Jacobi1 to illustrate the scope of the ongoing experimentation with colour and light and to demonstrate the extent of European influence on contemporary Canadian landscape art. 1 Members of the Canadian Society of Artists, both Edson and Jacobi were exceptional in the sense that, unlike many landscapists at Confederation, they traded in their European settings into genuine Canadian ones. In general, “artists exhibited more scenes of England and the Continent than of Ontario and Quebec.” (Harper 179) 133 An overview of the era in landscape painting Meaning to capture the spirit of the given period in Canadian history, W.

  • Happy Valentine's 2020
    Happy Valentine's 2020 Americans began exchanging Valentines in the 1700s. In the 1800s Esther Howland took it to a new level during the Civil War when Valentines were very popular. Families, friends and loved ones were separated and feared they would never see each other again. Esther Howland popularized and mass-produced Valentine’s Day cards like this one, using lace, ribbons and colorful paper. She had an all-women assembly line in Worcester, Massachusetts, which started in her bedroom in her family home and grew to have annual revenues of $100,000. (substantial at that time). This forgotten entrepreneur - Esther who? - was a classmate of Emily Dickinson at Mount Holyoke and named her booming business The New England Valentine Company. 1 of 23 People enjoyed sending tokens of affection, poems, pictures, locks of hair and simple homemade cards. Now they could purchase elaborate ones with hidden doors, gilded lace and artistic illustrations. The visionary Esther became known as "The Mother of the American Valentine." (Courtesy American Antiquarian Society) 2 of 23 I can't send you a three dimensional Valentine with accordion effects and a string which moves a bouquet of flowers to reveal a verse (Esther's innovation - still used today), but I am sending you some paintings evocative of the spirit of Valentine's Day. I am featuring American painters in our GDAS year of Americana. 3 of 23 Sundown at Yosemite , Alfred Bierstadt, 1863 Romantic souls love sunsets. A recent survey showed most adults feel a sunset puts them in a romantic mood, even more than dinner by candlelight.

A Federal Agency Catalogue Designed by David Berreth Printed by The Brunswick Publishing Co. Brunswick, Maine FOREWORD This catalogue and the exhibition Nineteenth Century American Paintings at Bowdoin College begin a new chapter in the development of the Bow- doin College Museum of Art. For many years, the Colonial and Federal portraits have hung in the Bowdoin Gallery as a permanent exhibition. It is now time to recognize that nineteenth century American art has come into its own. Thus, the Walker Gallery, named in honor of the donor of the Museum building in 1892, will house the permanent exhi- bition of nineteenth century American art; a fitting tribute to the Misses Walker, whose collection forms the basis of the nineteenth century works at the College. When renovations are complete, the Bowdoin and Boyd Galleries will be refurbished to house permanent installations similar to the Walker Gal- lery's. During the renovations, the nineteenth century collection will tour in various other museiniis before it takes its permanent home. My special thanks and congratulations go to David S. Berreth, who developed the original idea for the exhibition to its present conclusion. His talent for exhibition installation and ability to organize catalogue materials will be apparent to all.

  • Collection of American Paintings Highlights From
    Highlights_COVER 090816.crw1.indd All Pages 9/12/16 2:09 PM HIGHLIGHTS FROM COLLECTION OF AMERICAN PAINTINGS November 1, 2016–January 2, 2017 FOREWORD Richard Rossello, Principal Art galleries are seldom accused of understatement, and words like “sub- lime,” “luminous,” and “exquisite” are used so often that readers can’t be faulted for taking our descriptions with a large grain of salt. The fact is that collectors should and do make up their own minds about what is extraordinary and what is run-of-the-mill. Our effort to exhort interest is only so much noise at the end of the day. That said, we hope you can for- give our enthusiasm. We tend to fall in love with our paintings and feel a bit like dog breeders who want to see their beloved puppies go to good homes. Recently, my announcement that we had sold a newly acquired painting, one that happens to be included in this catalogue, was met with groans in the office rather than applause. “We haven’t had a chance to live with it yet!” was the complaint. We were collectors long before we were dealers, and when we established the gallery, we made a promise to ourselves that we would only buy works of art we would want to keep for our own collections. We have stayed true to that promise, looking at literally hundreds of paintings for every one we buy. We live for that wonderful moment when we see a picture that should be part of Avery Galleries. We’re proud to own them, and because of that, I hope you will forgive us if we get car- ried away with our descriptions.
